Thanks to Sam Hughes of Decatur County Sheriff's Department and Decatur County 4-H for visiting Ms. Rambo’s Extended Learning Time (ELT) class and for leading the bow-and-arrow STEM challenge. His clear lesson on potential and kinetic energy through shooting a bow gave our students a meaningful, hands-on way to connect science with real‑world activity. We are very grateful for your time. Your support means a great deal to our school and community.

Students in Mrs. Hufstetler’s Extended Learning Class (ELT) are participating in the Algae Academy sponsored by the Algae Foundation and the U.S. Department of Energy to learn about the uses of algae in everyday life and its optimal growing conditions.
